Ben Stein catches up with Glenn Beck... We have figured out Obama... I would take issue with the assertion Obama is "super likable". Leftists never are, and Obama is not the exception. The public now sees Obama as the petulent, inept little man-child he is, in my opinion. spectator.org/archives/2009/07/24/weve-figured-him-out#

LOL @ "ultra leftist"
Conservatives don't know if they're coming or going; they simply use whatever argument is convenient at the time. One minute, Obama is just another Bush, and the next, Obama is an ultra-leftist. LOL! Which is it?

...can't it be both? I think it is both except I liked President Bush a little. I can't say that I hate everything about President Obama....Let's just say that I hate everything that he's done in office, his playing golf, & everything I've heard that he has done.

>> Barack Obama is a super likeable super leftist and not a fan of this country>>
I don't see anything likeable about him. He reads his speeches like a robot and has zilch charisma. His speeches are repetative and boring and finds it difficult to answer direct questions at press conferences. He is not liked by our leaders abroad and is quite obvious not a fan of this country.

ACORN spent less tha 20% of their measly $25M/year on voter registration, primarily in districts that would have voted heavily for Obama anyway, and districts with incredibly low turnout. you seriously think that $5M of voter registration money spent in that way got Obama elected? seriously? i think the WEATHER had more to do with it than ACORN.

No.
Bush was not "ultra-left," and you bloody well know it. Goal posts are usually set with concrete for a reason ... so you can't move them.

Obama is an attractive man. We tend to believe attractive people are endowed with better qualities and abilities. The night he was elected, I knew who he was based on his history and associations. Yet, when he took the stage, i wanted to suspend reality and hope he would actually become the man the man we all wanted him to be. And, he had an unprecedented opportunity to become a great leader. Instead, we found out he is nothing more than a status quo, shovel ready govt shill who has no greater passion than his own well being and self aggrandizement. Too bad. So you wanted Obama to be 315 million different men? You do realize that what you wanted him to be is as unique as a snowflake.
